Am in the middle of fitting an RB25 engine & R33 gearbox, among other things, into my 32GTST & a mate has offered me an OS-Giken triple-plate clutch, one-piece tailshaft to suit, GTR intercooler setup & some other trick-bits in return for my RB20. Car will probably only be making a maximum of 250rwkw at the moment so I know its probably overkill but at least I know I wont hurt it any time soon... Seem to have a habit of breaking clutch-fork pivots in my R32 gearbox already with an Exedy button-clutch, so am also going for a Nismo slave, fork & pivot. Just after some feedback from people who have had this clutch fitted to a similar set-up (not GTR). Also has anyone driven one of these with & without the Nismo slave & does it make much difference?

Any help would be great. Cheers

I've used OS Giken tripple plates clutches on my GTR for the past 5 years.

I havent had any problem with it.

A lot of people bitch about it but what I've noticed is that it's always a bitch after I picked it up from workshop probably because the workshop only moved the car around their workshop. Somehow the clutch didn't like that at all. After a short drive or a couple of launches it's a beauty again.

I know you said you only want feedback from non GTR OSK R3C Users but 4WD will always be more load than 2WD. :huh:

So, you are looking currently around 250rkw and you are wondering how it holds up?

Well my GTR (4WD) does 363rwkw and I drive it in traffic/freeways all day every day.

The clutch takes 10mins to get used to (friction point and all) but after that you will wonder how you ever had a car without one!!!!

The OSK R3C Triple Plate is F&cking awesome!!! Snap it up before someone else does!!!!

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
    • Yeah, saw the ratios, not impressed. Would like the punch I have in the first gears now. With those ratios it won't be the same.  Also want the h pattern gearing, or at least a quiet gear set that don't need to come apart for service each year. Looks like the only "reasonable" way Is a 8hp70 transmission, but where is the fun in that🤷‍♂️
